#Changemaker #Community #Challenge

I always had compassion for impoverished and underprivileged people. I wanted to make a better world for everyone but felt helpless because there are too many problems in our society and so little that I can do. That is when I saw changemakers around me. When I look at changemakers solving various problems in their own unique way, I feel hope and gain confidence we are indeed changing the world. So I decided to assist changemakers so that they can make more impact through their work. This is my way of living as a changemaker.
